LEENA SMILE, FURRY DRAGONS, MUSICAL HOUSEMICE & NAKED LAPDOGS

Master thesis project / HDK / Gothenburg / Sweden / 2016
Materials & Dimensions: Mixed media installations / smell / sight / hearing / touch.

The senses played a significant role when it came to the task of translating the title characters into spatial installations and objects. Originally the characters came from one of my books: So they lived [          ] ever after (2014). I got to ask questions like: what would Leena Smile smell like, what would it feel like to hold a Furry Dragon, what sounds would the Musical Housemice make and what would the traces of a Naked Lapdog look like?
